lyrics

I paid a loan I didn't file
Picked up the phone until it dialed
I'm running circles long distance til this ends
Under the surface growing thick skin, sensitive
Oh
I ran away to the same place
I camped all night inside the day
I'm sick and tired of being healhy, well rested
I pay to eat so that I'll hungry invested
oh
I'm feeling storm before the calm.
The shrapnels here before the bomb.
I get excited by mondays and mundane.
I get inspired by headaches and back pain.

I can't sit still so I just stand around idle
Ingoring all the information that's vital
Why can't I wait to live life after I die?
And when I go to bed tonight I hope I open my eyes.

I can imagine the fun that we'd be havin buried underground but alive.
I can imagine the fun that we'd be havin buried underground but alive.

I'm seeing graves before the child.
Not innocent before the trial.
A string of bad luck tied up in a tight knot
A genius has stroke and dies of a brain clot

I can't sit still so I just stand around idle
Ingoring all the information that's vital
Why can't I wait to live life after I die?
And when I go to bed tonight I hope I open my eyes.

I can imagine the fun that we'd be havin buried underground but alive.
I can imagine the fun that we'd be havin buried underground but alive.
I can imagine the fun that we'd be havin buried underground but alive.
I can imagine the fun that we'd be havin buried underground but alive.
